[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This was the plan all along everyones wins. SYC girls have ECNL and [b]Mclean boys will get MLS Next[/b]. What's all the fuss about? If you're not happy then leave and go to Arlington, but Currently Arlington boys have been coming over to try out at MLS Next so now there will be available spots for you.[/quote]

The McLean boys are not being offered MLS Next slots.  MLS Next is for straight SYC teams, not the Virginia Union.  That means SYC's 'B' team players will be getting Virginia Union ECNL roster spots.[/quote]

Surely the best kids who try out will end up on whatever team they are good enough for?  In other words if a McLean player is good enough for the MLSNext roster, indicates their interest and tries out for it, then they will get an offer.  No?

The problem is that this solidifies McLean's weakness on the boys side.  Maybe some SYC B team players can make McLean ECNL rosters, but they're not going to be difference makers or they would have made the SYC first teams.  So there's unlikely to be much improvement in McLean's ECNL teams which in turn makes them less attractive as a destination.  the best McLean can hope for is that Arlington doesn't go MLS Next and it and VDA lose players to SYC and Alexandria as a result which would make McLean more competitive, but not really in a good way.[/quote][/quote]
